Your hurt level goes above 9000 if anyone says anything negative about OP- So much so that you start even bashing a whole nation and turn into a borderline racist even..that I can understand. There are enough fanboys all over the net. But, I have no idea what makes you think that that ugly arse image is for female fanservice even remotely.
Just let me tell you anything about that guy is not directed at females but for the male humour. It's not a bad thing- as they are the target audience after all but please even Oda wouldn't claim that anything about Franky is for female fanservice. Nami and Robin were not impressed with his last enhancement but it were the male crew members going ga ga over him.
How Oda handles his characters works for his audience and that's all to it. And yeah I agree his fan service is not added just for the sake of it but put in there in a clever way.That makes him a good story teller and entertainer.
Edit: Yea I do find some of his female character quirks and jokes quite stereotypical and sexist but then again I knew it was a shonnen thus targeted at male audience when I started reading it so no surprises there either. So while I can notice when it's being sexist and objectifying women I also know it's all just fun talk from male prospective. Again it works in that story line.
Yeah I like how you come in and try to join this discussion just like that, however there is a backstory that you don't know about since I don't see you a lot in this section. Vasu is a weird guy who gets a rush out of pretending to be a fan but meanwhile bashing OP as hard as he can, there is no constructed criticism whatsoever, it's all just for the fun of dragging it through the mud and telling how Naruto and Bleach and his 7 other manga are in every way superior. I don't care about that everyone has his opinion but he keeps coming back, even after saying he would drop the series.
So by reversing the roles I showed him what his posts would look like if I did the same, and suddenly all the Capt. America's and goody two shoes start lecturing me how bad I am. But if you would read the post with this in the back of your head and third paragraph where I explained myself, it is a lot better to understand.
And by quoting only a select piece of what I said or showed you pull things out of context, for someone who is moderating here you could expect to know better. That ass was requested for in another post not made by me, to prove that Oda isn't only about naked females. We've seen a lot of male bottoms, momonosuke being the latest. But also several okama and even Luffy in a cage naked on AL in front of crazed women, but you don't hear anyone about that.
And I totally agree with you in your edit and last three paragraphs, that is my entire point I even said that literally. But I guess it was too much too ask to read in to the subject and the rest of the thread before judging me and calling me out as butthurt when someone says anything about OP.
I don't care if it is something bad about OP, I care if a post is dumb and doesn't use argumentation to back-up the claims. And if you can't do that in a discussion forum, then what are you doing here in the first place.
I'm not going to be a yes man, nodding my head and posting things like "Agreed" or "this right here" or copy paste a funny meme. If you want to talk about the subject then bring evidence or I'll debunk it. I'm not going to stand for it if so called fans start bashing the manga that I like to read weekly, when they never gotten past chapter 50.
I think India is a beautiful country with a great culture and a rich history, so don't get me wrong here. By calling me a borderline racist you disqualify yourself. And you come on as someone who is prejudiced, and that is a bad habbit when you're running a forum. I hoped that the people who have to judge posts from other users would be better at reading between the lines, and get the better picture. Sadly I get warned for it, and members like you and Anduril go crazy when reading a list of stereotypical qualifications about a country losing the focus on what it is about here.
A sad day for Narutobase.
